The Dominators

lyrics

“Is it dead or alive?” she asked
Robed, dis-robed and unmasked
Don’t you waste all of my time
Probing the corners of my mind
Cos I’m here drenched in sorrow
Surely you’ll lead and I’ll follow
I’ve stopped quaking in my boots
Wearing filthy shirts and dry-cleaned suits

You can take all of my meek words
And twist them to your cruel device
The sins from off of your red lips
They’ve always been your flavoured vice

Tie up and chain down thoughts and deeds
All the thresholds pain exceeds
Except the fact the thrills I lack
Dissipate when I lay on my back
Don’t you walk too far away
I am really bound to stay
You pray for all the lives you wreck
At the points at which faith intersects

Drawn on the rack, I’m hung out to dry
Tease me like I am just your small fry
Velvet helmet, golden shower
Whipped and cracked up in your power
